watched Top Gear on the Discovery channel today, and while I'm sure it was old news they finalized their episode of trying to destry a Toyota pickup truck. In a previous episode they had banged it up, set it on fire, hit it with a wrecking ball, etc etc and it still ran and drove. In this episode they put it on top of a 20 story building and then imploded the building. On the site the truck still started up with no replacement parts, and they drove it into their studio.

That was the first time they tried to destroy it. Your saying they trying to do it again?
I love that show. They raced a Lamborghini Gallardo vs. an Evo and the Evo kept up (lotsa corners). -------------------- |

I dont think that there would be different results with the Celica. I haven't watched the show but it reminds me of my wrecked GT4 before i fixed it up (new roof, new hood, new fenders, new doors, but no mexhanical stuff were replaced)
